Winston Kenneth Huenison
With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Winston Kenneth Huenison on Wednesday, March 6th, 2024, at the age of 97 years, surrounded by his children. Born in Langenburg, SK and raised in the Hazel Dell, SK area, Winston moved south to the Grayburn, SK district where he worked for local farmers. He met Joan (née: Mercer) and they married in 1951. They eventually purchased their own farm that they operated together for approximately 44 years. In addition to farming, Winston was a linesman for the Caron Rural Telephone Company and was also instrumental in the sign-up process for rural natural gas service in their area. Winston and Joan enjoyed many winters in Florida in the Sebring area, golfing and socializing with their neighbours. After they sold the farm, they moved to Moose Jaw. Winston found a new passion in restoring antique vehicles. His pride and joy was the 1930 Model A Deluxe Roadster that he restored along with several other vehicles and a John Deere Model 70 tractor.
After 70 years of marriage, Winston was predeceased by his wife, Joan. He was also predeceased by his parents, Fred and Emma Huenison; in-laws, Albert and Frances Mercer; two older sisters and their husbands, Evelyn (Welby) and Bea (Jack); brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Frank (Jean); and grandson, Wade. Winston is survived by his children: Earl (Lorraine), Barry (Shirley), Mark (Deb), Lorraine (Ken), Lynne (Terry), and Brenda (Roy); sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Pat (Grant); 18 grandchildren and 27 great-grandchildren; as well as several extended family. Winston is also survived by his friend and companion, Marie.
The family wishes to extend our sincere thanks to the MAID staff, who provided such compassionate assistance to Dad.
In keeping with Winston’s wishes, a Private Family Service will be held. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. Gary McDowell, Funeral Director 306-693-4550
